Gene medication or genetic modification? The devil is in the details
... The Norwegian Biotechnology Advisory Board (Oslo) has made suggestions for how to regulate the overlap between gene medication and genetic modification. In theory, genemedicated animals could have the same kind of adverse effects as transgenic animals, although generally with a substantially lower p ...
